← ScienceWhich outcome is observed because frame dragging near rapidly spinning neutron stars tugs at local spacetime?
A)Polarized light shows helical patterns✓
B)Superfluid helium achieves zero viscosity
C)Carbon dating becomes more reliable
D)Ocean tides exhibit more intense spring
💡 Explanation
Polarized light shows helical patterns because frame dragging causes the Lense-Thirring effect; the angular momentum transfer via spacetime distortion means light emitted nearby aligns helically, therefore polarized light analyses reflect this pattern, rather than exhibiting random orientation
